A dental implant is a small titanium post placed in the jaw that acts as an artificial tooth root. Once healed, it holds a crown, bridge or denture that looks and works like a natural tooth — without affecting neighbouring teeth.
Are implants right for you?
Implants are often the best long-term option for missing teeth, but they aren't the only one — and they aren't right for everyone. Before recommending anything, a specialist reviews your case honestly. You may be a strong candidate if you:
- Have one or more missing teeth, or teeth that can't be saved
- Have healthy gums and enough jawbone (a 3D scan confirms this)
- Are in reasonable general health and don't smoke heavily
- Want a fixed solution rather than a removable denture
If a simpler or cheaper option would serve you better, we'll say so. We'd rather lose a booking than recommend treatment you don't need.
Your options, compared
Depending on how many teeth are missing, your specialist may discuss one of these approaches. Each has different costs and timelines, set out clearly in your plan.
| Option | Best for | From |
|---|---|---|
| Single implant | One missing tooth | €650 |
| Implant bridge | Several teeth in a row | €1,900 |
| All-on-4 | A full arch, fixed | €3,400 |
| All-on-6 | A full arch, extra stability | €4,200 |
What happens, step by step
Implant treatment is paced for safety — never rushed into a single sitting. Here is the honest sequence.
Assessment & 3D scan
A full consultation and CBCT scan confirm your bone and the exact plan before any treatment begins.
Implant placement
The titanium post is placed under local anaesthetic. A temporary tooth may be fitted for appearance.
Healing at home
The implant fuses with the bone. You recover at home — we stay in contact and coordinate aftercare near you.
Final crown
On a brief second visit, your permanent, custom-shaded crown is fitted and checked.
Real patient results
Real cases, shown with consent. Outcomes vary by individual.
The materials we use
We don't cut corners on what goes in your mouth. Our partner clinic uses the same premium implant systems as leading European practices — the price difference is labour and overheads, not quality.
